We can’t wait to plant more seeds to advance food security\, support community leaders\, and expand community agriculture in Austin. Please consider supporting us with a sponsorship package. You can find the details on our Sponsorship Page and attached for your convenience. \n  \nWith you in our corner for Goodness from the Garden\, we’re sure to get more hands in dirt\, more veggies in kitchens\, and more equity in our food systems. \nPlease reach out to me at grace@fruitfulcommons.org with any questions.

SUMMARY:Venture Outfitter Weekly presents: Following Up From Last Week: the Community Has Spoken
DESCRIPTION:At this week’s VO weekly\, we’re going to review the results from last week’s poll at the call. \nThe VO Weekly Planning last week has shown that the community has increasing interest on the 2 types of VO weekly formats\, a) hearing from an expert\, and b) community conversations. The results also show a leaning on getting much better engagements and introductions from the community and also expansion with each entrepreneurs’ company/initiative. \nThere were also a few suggestions like\, 1) putting up a database tool for the network where people could connect to each other by seeing people’s expertise and background. 2) An update of previous interactions and programs to evaluate impact and results of the said previous efforts. 3) Have more time to engage and exchange information \nSee you on Thursday 11AM CDT! \nRSVP here: ZOOM REGISTRATION \nBe sure to join the Venture Outfitter community to get access! \nVenture Outfitter by Tech Ranch®

DESCRIPTION:What Ecosystem Leaders Never Talk About With Entrepreneurs: The Inner Game \nThere are lots of different programs to support entrepreneurs in business.
